181
00:08:14,007 --> 00:08:15,223
I'll tell you all about it
182
00:08:15,256 --> 00:08:16,555
when Abby and I get back from the trip.
183
00:08:16,590 --> 00:08:18,473
Right.
184
00:08:18,524 --> 00:08:20,775
Why don't you come?
185
00:08:20,836 --> 00:08:22,418
No.
186
00:08:22,461 --> 00:08:24,812
Take some mother/daughter time.
187
00:08:24,874 --> 00:08:26,040
We need some husband/wife time.
188
00:08:26,073 --> 00:08:28,890
I gotta go.
189
00:08:28,966 --> 00:08:30,766
[Melissa, writing]: "I would
have never let you walk away
190

191
00:08:32,628 --> 00:08:34,895
[Friend]: She said it all happened so fast.
192
00:08:34,955 --> 00:08:36,538
One second, they were all laughing,
193
00:08:36,581 --> 00:08:38,348
and the next thing they
knew, they hit the rocks,
194
00:08:38,396 --> 00:08:40,045
and everyone was in the water...
195
00:08:40,090 --> 00:08:41,540
Mr. Wheeler?
196
00:08:41,580 --> 00:08:42,962
Yes?
197
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,517
We just got the lab
work back on your blood.
198
00:08:44,558 --> 00:08:46,024
I'm afraid there's an issue.
199

[♪♪♪]
200
00:08:55,751 --> 00:08:57,651
Michael...
201
00:09:02,459 --> 00:09:05,628
How's Abby?
202
00:09:05,713 --> 00:09:07,913
They think she's gonna lose a kidney.
203
00:09:07,971 --> 00:09:09,988
- [Gasps]
- Oh, no.
204
00:09:10,044 --> 00:09:12,945
No...
205
00:09:13,021 --> 00:09:14,604
She needed blood.
206
00:09:14,648 --> 00:09:16,631
So...
207
00:09:16,683 --> 00:09:19,868
I gave them mine.
208
00:09:19,953 --> 00:09:22,453
But my blood didn't match.
209
00:09:23,666 --> 00:09:25,784
Michael, wait. Listen to me.
210
00:09:25,842 --> 00:09:27,942
What a fool I am.
211
00:09:27,997 --> 00:09:29,947
I mean, Abby was born, what...?
212
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,651
Nine months and two days
after we got married.
213
00:09:32,721 --> 00:09:36,422
Maybe, if you and Barry hadn't
been messing around on Friday,
214
00:09:36,521 --> 00:09:37,604
I would've been up there with you guys,
215
00:09:37,633 --> 00:09:38,849
and our little girl
216
00:09:38,884 --> 00:09:40,483
wouldn't be fighting
for her life right now!
217
00:09:40,527 --> 00:09:41,893
Listen to me, Mi... Michael.
218
00:09:41,929 --> 00:09:42,778
Correction...
219
00:09:42,802 --> 00:09:44,835
your little girl.
220
00:09:44,891 --> 00:09:45,874
Michael!
221

Michael...
222

[Weakly]: Michael!

- Candy striper.
225
00:09:54,698 --> 00:09:57,632
Can I get you a magazine or anything?
226

[Melissa, writing]: "It's true, Michael.

Alright.
240
00:10:31,891 --> 00:10:34,742
Well, all we have to do is
call the Clairemont Hotel,
241
00:10:34,818 --> 00:10:36,768
ask them to check their
records for a birthday party
242
00:10:36,820 --> 00:10:38,219
that was canceled
243

for a Michael W-H- something
in May of 2004.

Who's the father?
245
00:10:42,947 --> 00:10:44,881
- [Scoffs]
- You amaze me.
246
00:10:44,933 --> 00:10:46,782
An hour ago, you didn't
know these people existed.
247
00:10:46,832 --> 00:10:48,248
Now you can't continue
248
00:10:48,286 --> 00:10:50,603
until you determine the
parentage of their child.
249
00:10:50,665 --> 00:10:52,382
I can't explain it, Oliver.
250
00:10:52,430 --> 00:10:54,780
I just... have got an instinct.
251
00:10:55,697 --> 00:10:57,431
An instinct.
252
00:10:57,478 --> 00:11:00,046
You once said, "we don't find the letters,
253
00:11:00,115 --> 00:11:01,281
they find us."
254
00:11:01,313 --> 00:11:02,295
I do.
255
00:11:02,323 --> 00:11:03,455
Well, this morning,
256
00:11:03,485 --> 00:11:05,235
I woke up with a distinct feeling
257
00:11:05,283 --> 00:11:07,517
that today would pose a unique challenge.
258
00:11:07,577 --> 00:11:08,759
Was that a feeling
259
00:11:08,792 --> 00:11:10,075
or a fortune cookie, Ms. McInerney?
260
00:11:10,110 --> 00:11:12,977
- [Groans]
- Oh. Just... keep reading.
261

Oliver, please?
262
00:11:14,423 --> 00:11:16,440
Besides...
263
00:11:16,495 --> 00:11:17,711
Everybody knows that hotels
264
00:11:17,744 --> 00:11:19,894
destroy their records after 10 years.
265
00:11:19,951 --> 00:11:22,134
Now you're just making things up.
266
00:11:24,828 --> 00:11:27,263
On the other hand,
267
00:11:27,329 --> 00:11:30,147
I do have a feeling about this, too.
268
00:11:30,222 --> 00:11:31,271
What's your instinct?
269
00:11:31,299 --> 00:11:33,315
Not an instinct.
270
00:11:34,276 --> 00:11:35,709
More of a sign, really.

and the truth will make you free."
275
00:11:47,491 --> 00:11:48,957
10 years is a long time
276
00:11:48,996 --> 00:11:52,097
to be a prisoner to a lie, Ms. McInerney.
277
00:11:57,486 --> 00:11:59,838
"You are not Abby's father,
278
00:11:59,899 --> 00:12:01,481

Maybe it'll be me that goes into politics!

We thought of that!
298

00:24:17,995 --> 00:24:20,428
they've got enough for a reversal,
547
00:24:20,494 --> 00:24:21,844
based on new forensics
548
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:24,147
suggesting a compromise
in the chain of evidence.
549
00:24:24,207 --> 00:24:26,857
There's an old Illinois precedent from 1898
550
00:24:26,929 --> 00:24:27,928
on material evidence.
551
00:24:27,955 --> 00:24:29,087
I'll email it to you.
552
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:31,603
Great. Thanks.
553
00:24:31,669 --> 00:24:32,868
Uh...
554
00:24:32,901 --> 00:24:35,152
You know, I thought you'd be, uh,
555
00:24:35,213 --> 00:24:36,429
too busy campaigning
556
00:24:36,462 --> 00:24:38,311
to pay attention to this little stuff.
557
00:24:38,772 --> 00:24:40,473
Putting trash like this away
558
00:24:40,519 --> 00:24:41,785
is worth whatever it takes.
559
00:24:44,797 --> 00:24:47,065
Hey, you mind if I drop by and watch?
560
00:24:48,769 --> 00:24:50,920
You're the boss.
561
00:24:51,900 --> 00:24:54,752
[♪♪♪]
562
00:24:55,870 --> 00:24:58,004
But that's just not fair!
563
00:24:58,062 --> 00:24:59,361
I'm betting that's where
Michael's gonna do it...
564
00:24:59,398 --> 00:25:01,415
in court, at the appeal.
565
00:25:01,467 --> 00:25:03,167
Because if Brackner gets released,
566
00:25:03,214 --> 00:25:04,363
he'll disappear.
567
00:25:04,702 --> 00:25:07,353
I don't like the idea of
that guy walking around.
568
00:25:07,425 --> 00:25:09,992
But, hey! What if he couldn't walk?
569
00:25:10,061 --> 00:25:11,394
You know, I have a cousin...
570
00:25:11,429 --> 00:25:14,546
Norman, enough regulations
have been broken already.
571
00:25:15,742 --> 00:25:17,376
We don't know any more than Mr. Wheeler.
572
00:25:17,420 --> 00:25:18,636
Probably far less.
573
00:25:18,669 --> 00:25:20,702
Besides, what if... what if we're wrong?
574
00:25:20,757 --> 00:25:21,973
What if we are right?
575
00:25:22,007 --> 00:25:23,457
His daughter has lost enough already.
576
00:25:23,496 --> 00:25:25,462
She has. I just...
577
00:25:25,516 --> 00:25:27,216
Wait a minute.
578
00:25:27,262 --> 00:25:29,562
Ms. Mclnerney,
579
00:25:29,624 --> 00:25:31,390
what was the name of her doctor again?
580
00:25:31,437 --> 00:25:32,737
Ackerman!
581
00:25:32,772 --> 00:25:34,188
We've got the name.
582
00:25:34,228 --> 00:25:36,311
I'll just look up the records.
583
00:25:39,277 --> 00:25:42,479
Whoa... okay.
584
00:25:42,563 --> 00:25:44,346
This is a game-changer.
585
00:25:44,395 --> 00:25:45,594
I can't believe you found it.
586
00:25:45,627 --> 00:25:47,327
You're right. Someone has to stop him.
587
00:25:47,372 --> 00:25:49,605
Yeah, but we can't prove
it. At least not in time.
588
00:25:49,666 --> 00:25:50,715
Oliver, you always say
589
00:25:50,744 --> 00:25:52,377
that we have to be responsible
590
00:25:52,420 --> 00:25:54,354
for what little truth that we have.
591
00:25:54,408 --> 00:25:57,008
We have it now, and Michael doesn't.
592
00:25:57,077 --> 00:25:58,710
We have a moral obligation to stop him.
593
00:25:58,754 --> 00:26:00,354
We'll do everything in our power,
594
00:26:00,399 --> 00:26:02,115
but our powers are somewhat limited.
595
00:26:02,161 --> 00:26:03,077
How limited?
596
00:26:03,102 --> 00:26:04,518
Well, we have to stay
597
00:26:04,557 --> 00:26:06,490
within some pretty strict
guidelines around here.
598
00:26:06,542 --> 00:26:08,475
And, you know, every once in a while,
599
00:26:08,527 --> 00:26:10,044
when no ones's looking,
600
00:26:10,086 --> 00:26:12,736
we push the envelope if it's important.
601
00:26:12,806 --> 00:26:15,640
Well, I think this is one of those times
602
00:26:15,715 --> 00:26:18,099
and I'm certainly not looking.
603
00:26:18,163 --> 00:26:21,498
There you go. You heard it direct
from the Head of Special Projects
604
00:26:21,587 --> 00:26:22,669
in Washington, D.C.
605
00:26:22,698 --> 00:26:24,114
It is a tempting proposition,
606
00:26:24,154 --> 00:26:26,321
but we are talking
about saving a life here.
607
00:26:26,379 --> 00:26:27,445
Two, actually.
608
00:26:27,475 --> 00:26:29,808
We're gonna need a lot more than
someone looking the other way.
609
00:26:29,870 --> 00:26:32,754
We're gonna need full
authority to pull this off.
610
00:26:32,830 --> 00:26:33,979
At least temporarily.
611
00:26:34,012 --> 00:26:36,496
Why should it be temporary?
612
00:26:36,563 --> 00:26:38,330
Ms. McInerney...
613
00:26:38,377 --> 00:26:41,295
Take a letter.
614
00:26:41,373 --> 00:26:44,791
"Memo for General Distribution
615
00:26:44,881 --> 00:26:47,014

Uh... into a...

00:26:57,804 --> 00:26:59,237
A Special Task Force?
622
00:26:59,276 --> 00:27:00,792
Ah! That's good.
623
00:27:00,834 --> 00:27:02,083
Good, good, good, good.

deemed "undeliverable" and

628

Rebecca, that's great,
629
00:27:16,084 --> 00:27:17,116
but I can't help but think
630
00:27:17,145 --> 00:27:20,063
that we might need a little more latitude.
631
00:27:20,140 --> 00:27:24,158
An expense account,
flexible hours... travel.
632
00:27:24,470 --> 00:27:26,020
Okay. Got it. Got it.
633
00:27:26,062 --> 00:27:30,298

Love it!
638
00:27:39,207 --> 00:27:40,706
I'm sorry.
639
00:27:40,746 --> 00:27:42,529
What just happened?
640
00:27:42,578 --> 00:27:44,145
I just found my special project.
641
00:27:44,188 --> 00:27:47,506
- [Laughs]
- And you guys just got promoted.
642
00:27:48,499 --> 00:27:51,251
Norman is going to love this.
643
00:27:52,744 --> 00:27:54,145
So...
644
00:27:54,182 --> 00:27:56,532
We're a secret branch
of the post office now?
645
00:27:56,596 --> 00:27:58,179
Not secret.
646
00:27:58,222 --> 00:28:00,405
Just a very, very Special Task Force.
647
00:28:00,464 --> 00:28:02,498
But, I mean... Wow, wow! Wow!
648
00:28:02,553 --> 00:28:03,486
This is so exciting!
649
00:28:03,512 --> 00:28:06,262
We are like, uh, like
secret agents or superheroes.
650
00:28:06,336 --> 00:28:08,336
We're gonna need a name, like, uh,
651
00:28:08,594 --> 00:28:10,394
like a real name, like "the A-Team".
652
00:28:10,443 --> 00:28:11,759
Or the "Impossible Missions Force,"
653
00:28:11,795 --> 00:28:13,461
or, uh, "Seal Team Six"...
654
00:28:13,506 --> 00:28:14,655
"The Incredibles"?
655
00:28:14,687 --> 00:28:17,471
A moniker, some sort of unique designation.
656
00:28:17,545 --> 00:28:19,745
Wait! I've got it!
657
00:28:21,910 --> 00:28:23,995
"The Postables."
658
00:28:24,050 --> 00:28:24,848
Huh.
659
00:28:25,281 --> 00:28:26,898
The Postables.
660
00:28:26,943 --> 00:28:28,792
Right? The Postables! Oh, my gosh.
661
00:28:28,841 --> 00:28:30,174
We could even have jackets!
662
00:28:30,211 --> 00:28:32,745
- Or patches.
- "Postable" patches!
663
00:28:32,813 --> 00:28:34,279
I think you should draw the line at capes.
664
00:28:34,319 --> 00:28:35,785
Will do.
665
00:28:35,825 --> 00:28:38,476
Well, I'm proud to be a Postable.

00:28:45,231 --> 00:28:46,681
[Michael]: Of course. Yeah.
668
00:28:47,028 --> 00:28:48,578
She's from, uh,
669
00:28:48,928 --> 00:28:51,311
Three Hills, Wyoming,
if you can believe that.
670
00:28:51,375 --> 00:28:52,641
It's a very small town.
671
00:28:52,677 --> 00:28:54,861
Yeah. Her name's Eartha Lewis.
672
00:28:54,918 --> 00:28:57,001
I don't have the spelling...
673
00:28:57,057 --> 00:28:58,023
if he had a gun,
674
00:28:58,051 --> 00:29:00,852
he wouldn't take it through security.
675
00:29:00,927 --> 00:29:02,127
[Shane]: I scanned his bank records.
676
00:29:02,159 --> 00:29:03,492
He closed all of his accounts
677
00:29:03,529 --> 00:29:05,444
and put a power of attorney
into his daughter's name
678
00:29:05,495 --> 00:29:07,262
in case anything happens.
679
00:29:07,413 --> 00:29:09,964
[Norman]: Mm. He did have
an awfully big breakfast.
680
00:29:10,031 --> 00:29:11,497
I'm telling you,
681
00:29:11,538 --> 00:29:13,254
he's not expecting to get out of here.
682
00:29:13,301 --> 00:29:14,500
At least, not as a free man.
683
00:29:14,533 --> 00:29:15,949
Oh, Mr. Wheeler.
684
00:29:15,987 --> 00:29:18,337
Forgot your briefcase.
685
00:29:18,401 --> 00:29:20,151
Thanks, Anthony.
686
00:29:21,327 --> 00:29:22,628
And he just got his briefcase
687
00:29:22,664 --> 00:29:25,014
through security without inspection.
688
00:29:25,383 --> 00:29:27,634
[Quietly exhaling]

[Exhales nervously]
691
00:29:43,716 --> 00:29:46,117
Did I miss anything?
692
00:29:47,856 --> 00:29:49,157
All rise.

[♪♪♪]
694
00:30:00,419 --> 00:30:04,122
In the matter of the State
of Colorado vs. Carl Brackner,
695
00:30:04,220 --> 00:30:06,036
I am prepared to deliver my decision
696
00:30:06,084 --> 00:30:08,001
after I have conferred with counsel.
697
00:30:08,053 --> 00:30:09,336
Please approach the bench.
698
00:30:09,578 --> 00:30:12,629
[♪♪♪]
699
00:30:17,142 --> 00:30:19,776
Would you mind putting
your briefcase on the floor,
700
00:30:19,846 --> 00:30:21,063
under here?
701
00:30:21,096 --> 00:30:23,413
It's just that I'm... I'm
allergic to, um, leather.
702
00:30:23,476 --> 00:30:26,343
No, I'm sorry. I need it with me right now.
703
00:30:26,726 --> 00:30:29,478
Oh. Sure.
704
00:30:29,552 --> 00:30:31,485
Achoo.
705
00:30:34,908 --> 00:30:36,625
[Attorney sighs]
706
00:30:36,670 --> 00:30:38,387
Defense filed a motion
707
00:30:38,434 --> 00:30:42,135
to deny the 1898 ruling
on material evidence.
708
00:30:42,233 --> 00:30:44,884
She says I can't cite a case that old
709
00:30:44,956 --> 00:30:47,256
unless I can prove relevance.
710
00:30:47,316 --> 00:30:48,666
You got any ideas?
711
00:30:48,703 --> 00:30:49,885
Well, you could...
712
00:30:49,918 --> 00:30:51,735
she's questioning relevance
713
00:30:51,784 --> 00:30:53,367
because it's a hundred years old?
714
00:30:53,410 --> 00:30:55,977
That's exactly why it's relevant!
715
00:30:56,046 --> 00:30:58,146
Judges wrote decisions a hundred years ago
716
00:30:58,203 --> 00:31:00,553
so we could hear their voices today.
717
00:31:00,616 --> 00:31:02,249
If we don't listen to their past,
718
00:31:02,293 --> 00:31:03,593
then who will listen
719
00:31:03,629 --> 00:31:06,446
to this judge's decision
a hundred years from now?
720
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:07,953
Yeah! Not to mention
721
00:31:07,993 --> 00:31:09,959
the State of Illinois vs. Preston
722
00:31:10,013 --> 00:31:12,981
cited the same case in 1989 and prevailed,
723
00:31:13,059 --> 00:31:14,876
upholding the previous verdict
724
00:31:14,926 --> 00:31:16,642
of 1977.
725
00:31:19,528 --> 00:31:21,413
Your honor?
726
00:31:21,463 --> 00:31:22,812
May I approach?
727
00:31:25,212 --> 00:31:27,396
Who are you people?
728
00:31:27,453 --> 00:31:29,152
Mr. Wheeler.
729
00:31:29,198 --> 00:31:32,316
We know what's in that
letter in your pocket.
730
00:31:32,399 --> 00:31:34,399
We know what's in your briefcase.
731
00:31:34,454 --> 00:31:37,522
And I believe we know what's on your mind.
732
00:31:37,602 --> 00:31:39,485
Believe me, I wouldn't blame you
733
00:31:39,537 --> 00:31:42,922
if you stuffed Carl Brackner
into a blender and hit "frappe."
734
00:31:43,645 --> 00:31:45,779
But we have information
735
00:31:46,349 --> 00:31:49,033
about your daughter
736
00:31:49,104 --> 00:31:50,087
that will convince you
737
00:31:50,115 --> 00:31:51,714
of the terrible mistake
you're about to make.
738
00:31:51,860 --> 00:31:53,527
You must believe me.
739
00:31:53,573 --> 00:31:55,289
There is only one course of action
740
00:31:55,335 --> 00:31:56,668
you can take today.
741
00:31:56,704 --> 00:31:58,486
You must trade us your briefcase and the...
742
00:31:58,534 --> 00:32:00,034
Sig Sauer P229.
743
00:32:00,076 --> 00:32:03,695
That's concealed inside.
744
00:32:03,791 --> 00:32:06,224
Read the information, decide for yourself.
745
00:32:07,349 --> 00:32:09,617
You must trust us.
746
00:32:09,678 --> 00:32:11,945
This is a matter of life and death.
747
00:32:16,541 --> 00:32:19,159
Please, Mr. Wheeler.
748
00:32:33,125 --> 00:32:35,560
Well done, Sir. Thank you.

750
00:32:48,324 --> 00:32:50,591
[Oliver]: Sir, if we don't act now,
751
00:32:50,653 --> 00:32:52,520
you won't be able to save your daughter.
752
00:32:52,570 --> 00:32:53,520
[Judge]: Mr. Morgan,
753
00:32:53,546 --> 00:32:55,528
I have been convinced that
the relevance of the ruling
754
00:32:55,581 --> 00:32:57,598
on material evidence from 1898
755
00:32:57,653 --> 00:32:59,203
and I am going to allow it.
756
00:32:59,245 --> 00:33:02,145
Motion denied.
757
00:33:02,223 --> 00:33:05,358
I am now prepared to deliver
my ruling on your appeal.
758
00:33:05,441 --> 00:33:08,158
And after reading the
transcripts from your trial,
759
00:33:08,230 --> 00:33:09,663
I am inclined to agree
760
00:33:09,703 --> 00:33:13,655
with the jury's original
verdict of "guilty."

My name is Michael Wheeler.

My wife, um...
766
00:34:09,212 --> 00:34:11,814
My wife...
767
00:34:11,885 --> 00:34:13,885
She died in a river-rafting accident
768
00:34:13,938 --> 00:34:16,421
10 years ago.
769
00:34:16,487 --> 00:34:19,455
I found a letter that she wrote,
and in it she says that you...
770
00:34:21,433 --> 00:34:23,734
That you were the, uh...

I don't remember.
773
00:34:49,178 --> 00:34:51,796
People's relatives, they
show up every now and then,
774
00:34:51,866 --> 00:34:53,232
asking questions.
775
00:34:53,783 --> 00:34:54,916
Mostly "why?"
776
00:34:54,948 --> 00:34:56,748
I didn't come here to ask why.
777
00:34:56,796 --> 00:34:59,780
You've seen the monster.
778
00:34:59,859 --> 00:35:01,575
So go ahead
779
00:35:01,622 --> 00:35:03,722
and tell me to burn in
hell, or you forgive me,
780
00:35:03,778 --> 00:35:05,879
or you do whatever you've
got to do to get closure,
781
00:35:05,936 --> 00:35:08,019
'cause I got lunch coming
up, and it's pizza day.
782
00:35:08,775 --> 00:35:10,793
You have a daughter.
783
00:35:14,852 --> 00:35:17,403
Her name's Abby.
784
00:35:17,471 --> 00:35:20,622
When she was 12, she
was in the same accident,
785
00:35:20,705 --> 00:35:24,407
and now she...
786
00:35:24,506 --> 00:35:26,589
She needs a kidney transplant.

[Brackner]: You can't make me do that.
790
00:35:37,411 --> 00:35:38,410
Of course not...
791
00:35:38,438 --> 00:35:40,188
You can't even prove that's my kid!
792
00:35:40,235 --> 00:35:41,468
The test can.
793
00:35:41,502 --> 00:35:43,552
A really simple test.
794
00:35:43,608 --> 00:35:46,542
Yeah, well, it don't matter.
795
00:35:49,546 --> 00:35:51,930
She's 22 now.
796
00:35:51,993 --> 00:35:55,011
She's beautiful, she's smart and funny.
797
00:35:55,639 --> 00:35:57,757
She has blue eyes,
798
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:00,923
and she's tall...
799
00:36:00,980 --> 00:36:02,913

That's true.
803
00:36:26,156 --> 00:36:28,106
That is true.

to do something good,
something that matters.
807
00:36:45,205 --> 00:36:47,590
How many other guys in here get that?
808
00:36:50,237 --> 00:36:51,570
It's a simple test.
809
00:36:51,607 --> 00:36:55,409

the inside of your cheek.

to get you to let your hair down

and let yourself have a little fun?
835
00:39:18,618 --> 00:39:20,801
I will consider having fun, Ms. McInerney,

once my entire team is assembled
837
00:39:23,271 --> 00:39:24,737

Uh, barkeep.

- I do.
- Okay, well, ahem,
860
00:40:30,006 --> 00:40:31,811
before you walked in, I let it slip that...
861
00:40:32,868 --> 00:40:35,085
no, I flat-out told her

00:40:35,277 --> 00:40:36,442
that you'd overheard
863
00:40:36,475 --> 00:40:38,425
our conversation about you the other week,
864
00:40:38,478 --> 00:40:41,937
but I made her promise not
to tell you that she knew...
865
00:40:42,051 --> 00:40:43,217
I knew.
866
00:40:43,270 --> 00:40:45,103
I know. Apology accepted.
867
00:40:45,152 --> 00:40:46,201
Thank you.

"And the truth shall set you free."

00:40:49,824 --> 00:40:51,009
Oh, yeah?

00:40:52,769 --> 00:40:54,318
[Rebecca]: In the three happy weeks
871
00:40:54,384 --> 00:40:56,218
that I have spent at the Denver branch
872
00:40:56,291 --> 00:40:57,506
of the U.S. post office,
873
00:40:58,041 --> 00:40:59,042
I have learned
874
00:40:59,092 --> 00:41:02,393
not only what it means to
be a better postal worker...
875
00:41:03,231 --> 00:41:04,877
But I have learned from these honorees
876
00:41:04,921 --> 00:41:08,006
what it means to be a proud postal worker.
877
00:41:09,114 --> 00:41:12,358
It may be true that electronic
thought has taken over our world...
878
00:41:12,863 --> 00:41:15,196
I mean, we tweet and text
faster than we can think.
879
00:41:15,283 --> 00:41:16,321
"O.M.G."
880

[Laughter]
881
00:41:17,554 --> 00:41:20,055
But a year ago, or perhaps
a hundred years ago,
882
00:41:20,496 --> 00:41:23,297
someone wrote a letter with real words
883
00:41:23,373 --> 00:41:26,491
and more than two seconds
of thought put behind them,
884
00:41:26,573 --> 00:41:28,701
and we are living their future.
885
00:41:29,290 --> 00:41:31,090
There are thousands of letters,
886
00:41:31,161 --> 00:41:34,775
each one a voice from the
past, just waiting to be heard.
887
00:41:35,695 --> 00:41:37,361
It'll take the kind of sacrifice
888
00:41:37,831 --> 00:41:39,451
and devotion given by you,
889
00:41:39,963 --> 00:41:41,463
the honorees who have each received
890
00:41:41,526 --> 00:41:43,359
not only the distinguished service award
891
00:41:43,433 --> 00:41:44,599
from this branch,
892
00:41:45,394 --> 00:41:46,950
but I am happy to announce
893
00:41:46,992 --> 00:41:49,404
that the postmaster general
of the United States...
894
00:41:51,546 --> 00:41:54,081
has instructed me to confer upon you
895
00:41:54,301 --> 00:41:56,948
the highest honor for
any U.S. postal worker...
896
00:41:58,407 --> 00:42:00,072
"The Dark of Night award."
897
00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:22,651
Now, this is fun.
